I don't know that this compromise will win back those who've changed their minds already... I guess it depends on how desperate people are for a modern GR and Mephisto.
There's nothing really that enticing about human Robbie as a figure as we've seen. I think they should've just given the head + hoodie cowl piece, but made the early bird Mephisto.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

I agree. Mephisto would've been a huge enticement if he was the early bird special.

That said, I'd rather this entire Haslab fail and Hasbro find another, more affordable mass-market way to get Mephisto out there since I want him, but likely nothing else from this project.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

Do we know which Canadian retailer will get the ML Silk/Doc Oc 2 pack?

Wasn't that set an Amazon exclusive?

I looked on Amazon.ca and while your right, it says Amazon exclusive but It's sold by third parties only right now

I remember this being widely available for a long time, especially throughout the summer months

It was available for pre-order on Amazon.ca a couple of months ago, if I recall. My friend pre-ordered a set.

In fact, on this forum, some people said they recently got "your order has been delayed" emails from Amazon (because of course Amazon has the usual shitty problems fulfilling their preorders...)

So I think you missed the pre-order window, but they will hopefully get more stock around Christmas time.

Alright, thanks for all the clarification guys! I'll keep an eye out if ever it comes back in stock.
